[Dwight McClusky:] "I'll tell ya something, Scagnetti, in all of my days in the penal business, and that ain't no small<br>

amount of days, right boys?" [Kavanaugh:] "Oh, no." [Wurlitzer:] "Nope." [Dwight McClusky:] "Mickey and Mallory Knox are<br>

without a doubt the most twisted, depraved pair of shit fucked that has ever been my displeasure to lay my goddamn eyes on.<br>

I'm tellin' you, these two motherfuckers are a walkin' reminder of just how fucked up the system really is." [Jack<br>

Scagnetti:] "Don't get me started, okay, warden? Don't get me started." [Dwight McClusky:] "Dwight, you call me Dwight."<br>

<br>

[Jack Scagnetti:] "They've killed a shitload of inmates and guards." [Dwight McClusky:] "Three inmates, five guards and one<br>

shrink all in one year's time... Open that goddamn gate!" [Prison Guard:] "Yes, sir." [Jack Scagnetti:] "What, a<br>

psychiatrist?" [Dwight McClusky:] "Yeah, Mickey's better half, Miss Mallory, strangled his ass when he made the dumb-ass<br>

mistake to ask her what her parents were like, and she done it all shut up on tranquilizers too." [Jack Scagnetti:] "Oh..."<br>

<br>

[Dwight McClusky:] "Ain't love grand? If that doesn't tell the truth. Listen, I got another dead lie: love makes the world<br>

go around." [Black Inmate:] "Hey, I need to talk to you 'bout..." [Dwight McClusky:] "How did a fellow like you get to be a<br>

specialist in psychos anyway?" [Jack Scagnetti:] "Well, actually, Dwight, I'd recommend having your mother killed by one.<br>

After that happened I developed a rather keen interest in the subject, you know?" [Dwight McClusky:] "What happened?" [Jack<br>

Scagnetti:] "When I was born I spend the first part of my life in Texas." [Dwight McClusky:] "Oh, that's funny, you don't<br>

have an accent." [Jack Scagnetti:] "Nah, I don't wanna talk like those assholes." [Dwight McClusky:] "Well, my, my mother was<br>

from Texas." [Jack Scagnetti:] "I meant those other assholes, you know, who used to beat the shit out of me. Anyway, one day,<br>

when I was 8 years old, my mother... my mother... I wanted to play in the park. And it just so happened to be the same day<br>

Charles Whitman had climbed to the top of the University Texas Tower and started shooting strangers." [Dwight McClusky:] "And<br>

you was with her." [Jack Scagnetti:] "Sure was. You see, the thing is, Dwight, I didn't hear any shots. I didn't hear any of<br>

'em. And one minute I'm walking with my mother when all of a sudden... Chest explodes. She hits the ground, right? I'm just<br>

lookin' at her, her forearm flies off, her hip explodes and... Now, I'm not hearing any of these shots, right? BOOM! Chest<br>

explodes! Right?"<br>

<br>

[Jack Scagnetti:] "I spent all goddamn day lying flat on the grass, bein' eat alive by fucking ants. I'm thinking, what<br>

happened to my ma, you know? And ever since then I've had a strong opinion about the psychopathic fools that's alive today in<br>

America's fast food culture. I tend not to exhibit the self-discipline, you know." [Dwight McClusky:] "You..." [Jack<br>

Scagnetti:] "And comin' off a peace officer." [Dwight McClusky:] "You got it right, Jack. You got it right. Say, you don't<br>

mind, do ya, if I call you Jack?"<br>

<br>
